Welcome to Car Hire Hemel Hempstead. These Terms of Service govern your access to our website and vehicle rental offerings. By utilizing our services, you agree to these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals in Hemel Hempstead are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement, which you will receive upon booking confirmation or at the time of vehicle collection. This document outlines the specific terms, conditions, insurance coverage, applicable charges, and your obligations related to the rental. In the event of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the latter will take precedence.
Eligibility Criteria
Rent a Vehicle in Hemel Hempstead
- To hire a vehicle from Car Hire in Hemel Hempstead, drivers must be at least 21 years old, though restrictions may apply based on the vehicle type, particularly for those under 25, who may incur extra charges. A valid driving licence appropriate for the vehicle category is required, along with identification and proof of current address. Valid payment information and a security deposit must also be provided. Additional criteria may be outlined in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Options
- Reservations can be made via our website, by phone, or in person at our Hemel Hempstead location. To secure your booking, a deposit may be necessary. The total payment, along with a security deposit, is typically required upon vehicle collection. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, ensuring secure transactions through trusted payment processors.
4. Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection in Hemel Hempstead, it is important to conduct a thorough inspection and report any pre-existing damage. A vehicle condition report will be prepared and signed by both parties. Please return the vehicle in the same condition it was received, accounting for normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated and may result in additional charges. Ensure the fuel level matches that at the time of collection; refueling fees will apply if the vehicle is returned with less fuel. Late returns could incur extra charges, so notify us as soon as possible if you anticipate a delay. You are responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges incurred during your rental, along with an administrative fee.
5. Liability and Coverage
- All rentals include basic third-party insurance. Detailed coverage information and excess amounts can be found in your Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be offered to help minimize your financial responsibility. You will be liable for any damage or loss up to the excess amount, unless you opt for extra insurance coverage. Liability for damage resulting from negligence or misuse remains your responsibility, regardless of any insurance in place.
6. Modifications and Cancellations
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on your booking type and the notice period provided. For precise information, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or no-shows could incur additional charges, impacting your overall rental experience in Hemel Hempstead.
